Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Aproximativ 1 min.
2
Add the chopped yellow onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 8-10 minutes.
Aproximativ 9 min.
Nota bucătarului: Do not brown the onions; cook them gently to build a sweet base for the stew.
3
Stir in the minced garlic and grated fresh ginger, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Aproximativ 2 min.
4
Add the turmeric powder, cumin powder, and coriander powder. Stir well to coat the onions and cook for 1 minute.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Cooking the spices briefly helps to enhance their flavors.

7
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
Aproximativ 15 min.
8
Add the chopped green cabbage to the pot. Stir gently to submerge the cabbage in the liquid.
Aproximativ 1 min.
9
Cover and continue to simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender but still has a slight bite.
Aproximativ 12 min.
Nota bucătarului: Avoid overcooking the cabbage to maintain its texture and nutrients.
